Untitled

He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you.

Music for WOS book 4

Ho-Z just sent me the first sample for the music to WOS 4. OMG! I'm so loving it. He is truly inspiring me me in the direction that I intend to go with the storyline. You guys are going to love the music of WOS which is essentially the sounds of Jason. I can't wait until it's ready. I've always told Ho-Z that he should be making and selling his music so I'm truly happy that he is back in to it.

A Seal Upon Your Heart Review by Cozimfree

I wanted to share a review of A Seal Upon Your Heart that posted on Amazon. It moved me so deeply that it just made me cry. Others commented that it did the same and I wanted to share it with everyone.

I value my fans and friends and blog followers. You all keep me motivated and I know that you care about me as a writer and as a person, just as I care about you as both fans and people that are affected by my stories.Whether you write to me on FB or here on the blog or you read the posts and don't comment doesn't matter. I see the numbers and know how many people read my posts and I value every one of you!

 Many other people will review this book, I can only hope - and give potential readers the proper insight into what they have just experienced. I, however, don't want to review this book so much as speak to how this author continuously enriches my life and my outlook on life and my fellow human beings. I have read all of the Pepper Pace book offerings. Each book leaves me with a glimpse into a world that I can only imagine being beyond hard to live within. I was raised to never make fun of someone who was physically or mentally challenged. Never stare. Never think they are less than you. You do not know who is in that body. Take for instance, Professor Stephen Hawking. Diagnosed with motor neuron disease - regarded as one of the most brilliant theoretical physicists since Einstein, Albert Einstein. He is currently Director of Research for Theoretical Cosmology. A mind among minds, but trapped inside a twisted body without the ability to speak or do anything for himself. Yet...he speaks for the Universe. I bring him up to say, could I be in a physical relationship with him, could I kiss him, could we swab tongues, could I care for and love him. And, he is not even the type PP writes about, he is on the highest food chain in life. She has found a way to bring love to the lowest in this food chain, they get a happily ever after. For this and if only for this - Pepper Pace is the boss of bosses.

Each PP book gives me deep faith in my own ability and capacity to love beyond the shallow. Nope, not there yet. Each PP book leaves me more in love with love and being in love. To see the beauty of a scorned soul that is longing for a human touch and understanding, this package too can be an exquisite thing no matter the package it dwells within. They too deserve to have their heart massaged, to be held tight, to dream a lovers dream and to have those moments that leave them breathless (even if it is after a seizure).

I heart this author and all that she brings to the literary world. She speaks to and for survivors, in any form they exist (homeless, MS, overweight, mentally ill, morbidly disfigured, Rwandan survivor). She speaks to and for any person who has been abused, left out, ridiculed, bypassed, overlooked, looked through and overwhelmed by the hand that life has dealt them.

When I started Seal I thought, wow, this is different. In this book PP has gifted a troubled widower with an orphaned amnesiac survivor of the Rwandan genocide, raised in a convent that she has just been asked to leave and face an uncertain world. Wait. What? The heroine is dealing with her issues and we are moving along. No disability, none of the usual suspects (in a good way). Then as I got more into the book, I was like OMG PP began unfolding the rose, one delicate petal at a time as she always does. She also always takes on the vulnerability of both lead players. The thorns are indeed burrowed beneath both of their skins and PP makes sure that you get pricked. No one is ever perfect. How does she continue to speak for these people? How does she continue to be an advocate for the voiceless and ignored of society. The people others look through or around. The cast offs and the cast aways. How is she able to introduce and familiarize us with them until she MAKES us look at them differently. Until only the most delicate and fragile part of the flower remains, attached to a stem that is barely hanging on. One layer at a time you see the mental disability of two people broken down like a fraction and carefully rebuilt into an amazing equation, a two part harmony reaching Heaven. Yes, Heaven.

PP you are gifted and we as readers are blessed that you said yes to accept your mission in life and yes to sharing the voices inside your head.
